Damn winter timetables

So tomorrow we get a winter timetable on the Hayes (Kent) line. I can’t make my mind up on how I feel about this. It is good in that we are more likely to actually get a train to London, but bad in that the trains that do run are almost guaranteed to be full to bursting.

I do wish they waited to see what the weather actually does before deciding on the winter timetable, but I guess it helps logistically to do it early.
